Hey girl! I am so sorry that your friends are treating you that way, that is not fair to you at all. If they are being so mean and ignoring you then truly they are not your friends. As hard as it is, making new friends is the best way to be happy again and the summer is the best time to do that. If you are still having some problems and these thoughts, check out the nineline.com to talk to some people who can help you more.
